Hello! I am an LPC licensed in Texas. I have been working as a school counselor for 5 years and have had experience in the following areas: school, career, trauma, anxiety, military, special needs children, and suicidal ideations. I have worked with clients from 6 years old all the way up to 19 years old and have been able to see them blossom and I am looking forward to working with you! By the way. . .I am also bilingual (Spanish and English)!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

My first session with you will be to view what you need and also what your goals (what you would like to get out of therapy). We will also speak about confidentiality, fees, paperwork and any other questions that you may have just to make sure that everything is out in the open. If you agree that I am a good fit for you, then we can proceed to our next session.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I feel that my greatest strengths as a therapist are as follows: empathy, communication, and listening.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Using CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), I allow patients to reflect on the choices that have been done and what other choices that could have been made. Then from those choices, what the outcome could have been and let the patient decide which outcome would have been better.

Trauma Informed Care

Using Trauma Informed Care, understanding the background of the patient to understand why he/she is making the present choices. Once the understanding happens, then the patient can begin to move forward.

Gestalt

The empty chair technique is used in Gestalt therapy to address unresolved issues, conflicts, and emotions.
